If you are looking for the Warzone Krampus location or are wondering how to kill Krampus in Warzone, you've come to the right place. Warzone has received a Christmas update only a week after the official launch of its new map, Caldera. Yet with the Christmas event, things are getting more murderous than festive, as Krampus hunts players down. If you are on the hunt yourself we're here to tell you how to kill Krampus in Warzone, and how to kill it with the Warzone Krampus location. 

Where is Krampus in Warzone?

Unlike many of the seasonal events, the Warzone Krampus location isn't actually tied down to specific areas. Instead, you will entice Krampus for it to hunt you down. To do that, you will have to head to one of the many Fir Trees that are scattered across Caldera. You will be able to see these marked on the map. There is an area around the trees, and the longer you stand in it, the more Holiday Crates will spawn. 

Holiday Crates will reward you with seasonal weapons, along with the usual round of perks and equipment. However, most importantly, you will also gather coal from Holiday Crates, which will in turn attract Krampus. Collecting coal doesn't confirm that you will be joined by this festive beast, however, it is the only tried and tested way to bring it in.

Before getting to the Warzone Krampus location, you must know the threat that you face. Krampus is a mythical beast that will hunt down players across Caldera and the multiplayer of Vanguard. Krampus is a really powerful enemy, and if it gets close it will perform a finishing move on you, so be sure to keep your distance. However, if you do manage to kill Krampus it will certainly be worth your time.

If you are wondering how to kill Krampus in Warzone, then firepower and keeping your distance are key. As mentioned, Krampus will kill you with a finishing move, so at all costs keep a distance between you and it. Secondly, while it is possible in Solos, you will want as much firepower as possible. Krampus can take a lot of damage, and will teleport away from fire at times, so you will want as many eyes (and guns) on him as possible. We'd recommend checking out the new best Warzone Cooper Carbine loadouts. As long as you keep things moving and keep your damage up, you will be able to kill Krampus in Warzone. 

That's everything you need to know about the Warzone Krampus locations and how to kill Krampus in Warzone. If you want to know more about this event, check out our Warzone Festive Fervor guide.
